Answer:

Kyle filled 4 servings of 10oz 16 servings of 14 oz 9 servings of 20 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

10oz 95c = x

14oz 1.15c = y

20oz 1.50c = z

444 given divided by 29 cups

= 444/29 = 15.3103448 average cup weight so the higher size were used more.

9 servings of 20 oz cups = 180 = cost check at 1.50 x 9 = $13.50

16 servings of 14 oz cups = 224 = cost check at 16 x 1.15 = $18.40

4 servings of 10 oz cups = 40 = cost check at 4 x 0.95 = $3.80

Where given collection total said to be $35.90 we total 13.5+18.4+3.8 = 35.7 so we are 0.20 out and can try again.

OR just submit this. 4 servings of 10oz 16 servings of 14 oz 9 servings of 20 oz
